Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias, particularly in the sections on enabling ICMP and connecting to lab VMs. Only Windows 11 is used as the example VM image, and instructions for enabling ICMP are provided exclusively for Windows via PowerShell. There are no equivalent Linux examples or commands for enabling ICMP or connecting to Linux VMs (e.g., via SSH). The documentation also references RDP before SSH and does not provide Linux command-line examples for tasks like firewall configuration or connectivity testing.
Recommendations:
- Provide parallel Linux examples throughout, especially for enabling ICMP (e.g., using ufw or firewalld commands).
- When showing how to connect to VMs, include both RDP (for Windows) and SSH (for Linux) instructions, with equal prominence.
- When suggesting VM images, mention both Windows and popular Linux distributions (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS) and show how to select them.
- In sections that use PowerShell, add equivalent bash or shell commands for Linux users.
- Ensure screenshots and walkthroughs are balanced between Windows and Linux scenarios, or clarify when steps are OS-specific.
